Think about just how close the Pats were to going a perfect 9 for 9 in those Super Bowls. Either way, 6 rings, 9 appearances, both Belichick and Brady are the greatest to ever do it at their respective positions, they just happen to be on the same team for two decades. Your point is taken. Nobody (at least not me) is disputing how great Belichick and Brady have been...but the bolded is cherry picking to fit your narrative. You could just as easily have said, "In reality, he is a fluky Edelman catch/historic Falcons collapse and the benefactor of the worst call in Super Bowl history by boneheaded Pete Carroll from having two less championships." Those "two flukey Eli Manning passes" weren't anymore 'fluky' than the 'Tuck Rule' which allowed them to win a Super Bowl, as well. Bizarre and 'lucky' plays are made in the NFL all the time. It's part of the game. The Pats* don't deserve any more or any less than what they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
